The Norwegian site Mineserier.No has one FANTASTIC compilation of Scandinavian Conan covers! I believe many of these are from Finnish publications (I could be wrong), and make no mistake, these covers have it all!
Shocking Revelations!
(Conan did what?)
Awesome Classics!!
(Joe, you rock!)
Local Talent!
(I can't quite make out the signature, but it looks distinctively Scandinavian...)

Quizzes!!
(Hell, if it's Conan related, and these two vixens will be invigilating, I'll take that damn quiz!)
(Does that say "Blod Coks"?...Den Brune Manns Knokler!!!)
(Well, hello there little lady...)
Full Frontal Nudity!!!
(sorry...visit the site to see these naughty bits and more!)
Belits Død!!!!
Seriously people...check it out, you won't regret it!
*EDIT* I had a long look at the signatures of that unknown "local talent"...turns out it's Vebjorn Strommen (from Norway), and his artwork graces the covers of many of these Conan comics! Have a look at his gallery HERE.
Belit!
...and more importantly...
(oh yeah!...um, what's a død?)

I LOVE seeing the alternate covers from other countries. Great post! Surprised to see one of mine in there!
Awesome covers...it's great to see other people running with the ball.
I was doing some research once and came across some norse words ...Red is spelled Rod and blood is Blod...so I am thinking that Dod means Dead as in Death so I believe the caption may be Belits Death or the death of Belit.
pronounced ( Bay - leet ) by the way.
Hey Mikeyboy!! I knew those translations, but it was a lot funnier pretending that I didn't.
ok sorry then I won't try to tanslate Bood Coks ...ok...lol
Joe, you're kind enough to come by and comment, so it's the least I can do to show my appreciation!!
Hmm, I think most of these samples are Norwegian, not Finnish...
